Who gives a flying pig if the wealthy are pissed off? What are they gonna do, pick up their toys and move to North Korea? Let them go, but freeze their assets as they head out the door.

They have been pillaging the national coffers of every nation on this planet for years, have effectively destroyed the middle class in the United States, and made billions on the backs of people who can't even afford to sustain themselves without government assistance. At this point why should anyone care if they willingly want to give it up.
